He took out a test tube containing an unknown solid and forcefully crushed it. He poured the liquid that leaked out of the test tube into his mouth. Lei Luo did not try to stop him. Lei Luo wanted to see what other tricks the Nakajima family head had up his sleeves.
Soon, that person’s roar had already sent chills down everyone’s spines. His body also began to undergo changes. His originally smooth skin began to become rough, and it was filled with the cuticle layer that only wild beasts had.
His hair began to grow unnaturally, covering his gradually bulging body. His undeveloped muscles became full.
Two meters…
Three meters…
Four meters…
Soon, the person in front of him could no longer be called a “person,” or a “monster.” It was more appropriate.
His bloodshot eyes stared straight at Lei Luo, as if Lei Luo was a portion of delicious food. Saliva flowed down the bowl-sized mouth, and his body ran around the arena.
It seemed that he was very afraid of Lei Luo, so he did not directly attack Lei Luo.
Lei Luo did not act rashly. In his opinion, this should be one of the deals between the lord of the Middle Island and the demon world. In order to complete such an alliance, he had to pay a great price.
A sharp claw was aimed at Lei Luo’s neck, but a hand had already slowly grabbed the monster’s wrist and pulled it forward fiercely, [ gravity manipulation ] and a simple [ buff ] spell allowed Lei Luo to have the strength and speed to fight against the monster.
For the sake of the following match, Lei Luo still had to pretend that he was injured.
He smashed the monster heavily on the ground, and gravity was attached to the monster’s body, restricting him from breaking free.
After adjusting the intensity of the spell, he gave him some water. The gravity was not as heavy as it was at the beginning, and the monster quickly reacted. His other hand stabbed towards the hand that Lei Luo was holding on to.
Lei Luo released his hand at the right time, making everything seem reasonable. Only Takezo Miyamoto could see the difference between the gravity before and after. However, he did not say anything, only a hint of playfulness in his eyes.
Very soon, the monster’s attacks came wave after wave. The monsters could attack from all directions. Lei Luo seemed to be tired of running. Traces of blood seeped out of his body and dyed his cotton-padded clothes red.
He had to pay attention to his movement technique. He could not use too much water. Otherwise, he would be suspicious.
Suddenly, the monster let out a sharp cry, causing Lei Luo’s mind to be dizzy. All kinds of crazy thoughts echoed in his mind.
Although the people below the stage were standing far away from the stage, they were still affected by the sound. They became disgusted and bored.
After the [ shield ] spell was cast, Lei Luo felt a little better. However, in the instant that he felt better, the monster’s claw had already reached Lei Luo’s forehead.
The knife in his hand followed Lei Luo’s fingertip and drew a clear light. At an unexpected location, the monster’s hand was cut off.
Next was the left leg, right leg, and lower body. Very quickly, the monster’s body became fragmented and could not be seen anymore.
The sudden end made everyone dumbfounded. It had to be said that Lei Luo’s performance had exceeded Moroes’ expectations.
“Next round, the treasure house will fight. We must seriously injure him.”
Moroes stared at Lei Luo without turning his eyes away. He did not notice the gaze of the treasure house, which was filled with contempt and disdain.
However, with the sound of the monster’s dying breath and the activation of the ring’s repair magic, the monster was also dragged off the stage.
The treasure house slowly walked onto the stage. The monk staff in his hand and the long saber at his waist made people feel strange. However, when he took off his bamboo hat, his handsome face made the audience below the stage scream again.
It had to be said that the treasure house was indeed a first-class master with both strength and looks. Compared to Miyamoto Musashi’s rough appearance, the difference was obvious.
Lei Luo glanced at Miyamoto Musashi below the stage. He seemed to have sensed Lei Luo’s thoughts and gave him a middle finger.
“Mr. James, if I hadn’t met you in this arena, I would have been willing to slowly spar with you. However, I had no choice but to offend you.”
The treasure house gave Lei Luo a formal bow. Lei Luo still held everything in his hands. He knew that if he used a sword, it would be impossible for him to defeat such a grandmaster who was on par with Miyamoto Musashi. It would be better for him to face the myriad of changes without changing.
“Begin!”
As the referee announced the start, Lei Luo and the Treasury rushed towards each other. It was clear that in a battle between experts, they wanted to seize the first opportunity.
The Treasury’s staff fell from the top of his head. Lei Luo’s hand also reached for the staff. This was a sign that Lei Luo was going to use [ gravity manipulation ] .
However, the Treasury’s hand touched the long knife at his waist. Lei Luo’s alarm rang in his heart. He wanted to retreat, but it was too late.
Thus, he used a [ charge ] spell to pull his body apart. The knife in the treasure yard’s hands had already cut Lei Luo’s neck. Lei Luo’s spell was blocked by a magic shield in front of the treasure yard.
In the first exchange, Lei Luo was completely defeated. He did not even see the movements of the treasure yard in drawing the knife. It was fast. His movements were very fast. It could be said that he had exceeded the limits of a human.
He was even faster than the monster. Lei Luo activated his ‘Sacred Body,’ and the wound on his neck naturally disappeared. Lelo also calmed down.
The treasury brandished his sword. The magic shield disappeared as Lei Luo retreated. His eyes were as sharp as swords. Yesterday, the Treasury knew what kind of magic Lei Luo would use.
They even predicted Lei Luo’s magic effects, so it was impossible for Lei Luo to defeat him with the magic he had used before.
At this time, Lei Luo also knew what the Magic Shield on the body of the treasury was. This was the empire’s magic conductor, [ Empire Guard ] , which was installed on the heavy-armored “Empire Knight.”
It could withstand magic spells below Level 6 at least twenty times. This magic conductor, which could be called a Bug, had almost no channels for sale to the outside world. The price on the black market was even more sky-high.
It could be seen how much effort the aristocratic families had put in to deal with the factors outside of Lei Luo’s plan. In their eyes, neither Miyamoto Musashi nor Linghua could be considered a threat.
Only a mage like Lei Luo was a variable outside of the plan. Moreover, their judgment was that Lei Luo was a Level-5 mage, so it was worth it for them to pay a high price.
After removing the bloodstains on his hands, Lei Luo knew that his previous spells must have been thoroughly researched, so he might as well use the ancient spell that he had just learned.
With his hands clasped together, the aura on Lei Luo’s body began to change. This was the effect of the ancient spell [ alchemy ] . This spell did not have a specific level of magic.
Only the amount of magic output determined the level of magic power. What Lei Luo was interested in was the restraining effect of this spell on weapons. He could tell that this treasure house was a master of using weapons, so if he could restrain his use of weapons.. For Lei Luo, the advantage was huge.
